Another small man who has made great
mark as an athlete Is u. A. Lange. one OF the
distance walking, His short distance would
DO long for runner. and the use OF terms Is
therefore relative. An inch is u long distance
at tho end OF q man's nose. but three miles TO
q pedestrian Is short enough compared TO the
hundreds OF miles covered In one race by such
men as Weston and Leary. This difference In
distance makes the event altogether n different
kind OF sport, for although the same muscles
are brought into play. they are utilized d.
versely. The prime aim Of the lonR-dtstance
pedestrian Is TO study Nature and use his
limbs as much In accordance with her dictates
as possible. to walk easily, In other words. But
the man who sets out to cover O few miles In
the shortest possible time must force nature.
and aim to get as much out OF her unwilling
cooperation as he can by exerting his limbs In
accordance with tho dictates OF his reason. 1t
Is because he has trained with this theory In
view that Mr.. Lange has brought himself to
the foro as walker. He contested ut the cham
pion meeting with @. w. V. Clark. tho English
champion, for this event. Clark has be8tan

fact that their records are, as rule. higher
